How to reinstall/uninstall X11 on Mac OS X

We visited this concept of re-sizeable background images before… but reader Doug Shults sent me in a link that uses a really awesome technique that I think is better than any of the previous techniques.
This technique and the above background image is credited to this site. Here is what this technique is going to accomplish:
Fills entire page with image, no white space; Scales image as needed; Retains image proportions; Image is centered on page; Does not cause scrollbars; Cross-browser compatible; Isn’t some fancy shenanigans like Flash.

This is a Javascript library that sandwiches PNG image support into IE6 without much fuss.
You can use PNGs as the SRC of an

I never meant to become obsessive about getting PNG transparency working nicely in IE6. In the summer of 2003, I hit across a situation on a client project where what the designer wanted required the use of PNG transparency. The script that came to hand to get this working in IE6 at the time was called Sleight, but that only dealt with applying the filter to IMG elements. My design needed to do the same for CSS background images, so I hacked up a different version of the script for that purpose, called it bgSleight, and occasionally updated it.

I've scoured the web for resources and also included some of my own fixes for IE6 and now I've put it all together in this cheatsheet/reference manual as a resource for anyone who has to deal with Internet Explorer 6. Where possible, I've done my best to provide the cleanest and valid solutions to each bug instead of ugly hacks. I've also tried to give proper credit for each case, but some of the solutions have been shared so many times that finding the original discover of each fix is difficult. If you see a missing credit or if I missed a bug and fix, please contact me and let me know and I'll update this page.

Так как IE6 не поддерживает значение fixed свойства position, обычно для эмуляции данного эффекта используют position:absolute и CSS expression. Однако в результате при скроллинге или изменении размеров окна браузера возникали небольшие подёргивания фиксированного блока.

Vertical centering with CSS isn’t an easy thing to do. There are many different ways that may not work in some browsers. Let’s review 5 different ways to vertically centering objects, as well as the pros and cons of each method. (You can see my test page briefly explaining all of them.)

I’ve noticed lately that some web designers don’t seem to be using color profiles correctly in Photoshop. If you’ve ever saved images for the web and discovered that they come out slightly lighter and more desaturated than what you saw when you worked on them, this guide is for you.

In addition to the column widths, there are only two other classes defined: ‘column’ and ‘row’. The column class has a margin of 10 pixels applied to both the left and right edges, resulting in a cumulative 20 pixel gutter. Also note the ‘overflow: hidden’ attribute applied to both column and row. The real purpose of this technique is to clear floats, circumventing the need for a ‘clear: both’ declaration. Finally, we need to set the ‘display: inline’ property on ‘.column’ to prevent the double-margin bug in IE6.

Underscore is a utility-belt library for JavaScript that provides a lot of the functional programming support that you would expect in Prototype.js (or Ruby), but without extending any of the built-in JavaScript objects. It's the tie to go along with jQuery's tux.

It’s been a few hours since the Internet exploded over the Psystar Rebel_EFI bootloader and we tried it out on a few machines in the office and originally thought it failed. However, I let the boot screen run for a bit without touching the keyboard on an HP TouchSmart we had here and it suddenly dropped into the OS X install screen. A quick format using Disk Utility and I was, amazingly, in business. The touchscreen even worked!

Here's a simple way to move your swap partition under Leopard that appears to work for both Intel and PowerPC based Macs. Edit the file com.apple.dynamic_pager.plist, located in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons. Replace the /var/vm path with the full path to your swap partition.

Paste this code into an AppleScript, than invoke it with a shortcut (use Quiksilver or whatever you like):
try
set theClip to Unicode text of (the clipboard as record)
tell application "Microsoft Word" to tell selection to type text text theClip
end try

Basically, the problem is when you have more than 3 gb of ram (some says 2.5 gb) and AppleVIAATA, JMicronATA, AppleNForceATA or AppleATIATA driver.

I managed to fix this issue by finding this thread and installing the modified JMicronATA: v0.6 and AppleATIATA: v0.1 kexts.
